Strut bar installation questions....

I'm installing Spoon strut bar. The little ABS line won't clear so I have to modify it. After modifying it it still pushes the brake line back and forces some pressure on it. Eventually it's gonna cause the ABS line to leak fluid.

I was thinking of just putting a rubber grommet on the area where the strut assembly touches the brake line. Hopefully this will solve the problem but I'd like to know what the rest of you guys did for this and what long-term effects it would have on the brake line it makes contact with.

If I remember correctly, I think I just coaxed the line to move a tiny bit to get the strut brace on. With mine anyways, I only had to move it a few millimeters so the brace would fit on the threads. Just make sure to be extremely careful when doing this so you do not break anything, becuase then you are in big trouble!!
